Determine whether there exist two infinite point sequences $ A_1,A_2,\ldots$ and $ B_1,B_2,\ldots$ in the plane, such that for all $i,j,k$ with $ 1\le i < j < k$, (i) $ B_k$ is on the line that passes through $ A_i$ and $ A_j$ if and only if $ k=i+j$. (ii) $ A_k$ is on the line that passes through $ B_i$ and $ B_j$ if and only if $ k=i+j$. [i](Proposed by Gerhard Woeginger, Austria)[/i]
The sequence $a_1,a_2, ..., a_{2n}$ of integers is such that each number occurs in no more than $n$ times. Prove that there are two strictly increasing sequences of indices $b_1,b_2, ..., b_{n}$ and $c_1,c_2, ..., c_{n}$ are such that every positive integer from the set $\{1,2,...,2n\}$ occurs exactly in one of these two sequences, and for each $1\le i \le n$ is true the condition $a_{b_i} \ne a_{c_i}$ .

Show that \[ \sum_{cyc} \sqrt[4]{\frac{(a^2+b^2)(a^2-ab+b^2)}{2}} \leq \frac{2}{3}(a^2+b^2+c^2)\left(\frac{1}{a+b}+\frac{1}{b+c}+\frac{1}{c+a}\right) \] for all positive real numbers $a, \: b, \: c.$

Does there exist an infinite subset $S$ of the natural numbers such that for every $a$, $b \in S$, the number $(ab)^2$ is divisible by $a^2-ab+b^2$?
A bug starts at a vertex of an equilateral triangle. On each move, it randomly selects one of the two vertices where it is not currently located, and crawls along a side of the triangle to that vertex. Given that the probability that the bug moves to its starting vertex on its tenth move is $m/n,$ where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers, find $m+n.$
The point $ M$ is chosen inside parallelogram $ ABCD$. Show that $ \angle MAB$ is congruent to $ \angle MCB$, if and only if $ \angle MBA$ and $ \angle MDA$ are congruent.

On grid paper, mark three nodes so that in the triangle they formed, the sum of the two smallest medians equals to half-perimeter.

Susan is presented with six boxes $B_1, \dots, B_6$, each of which is initially empty, and two identical coins of denomination $2^k$ for each $k = 0, \dots, 5$. Compute the number of ways for Susan to place the coins in the boxes such that each box $B_k$ contains coins of total value $2^k$. [i]Proposed by Ankan Bhattacharya[/i]
Let $[n]$ denote the set of integers $\left\{ 1, 2, \ldots, n \right\}$. We randomly choose a function $f:[n] \to [n]$, out of the $n^n$ possible functions. We also choose an integer $a$ uniformly at random from $[n]$. Find the probability that there exist positive integers $b, c \geq 1$ such that $f^b(1) = a$ and $f^c(a) = 1$. ($f^k(x)$ denotes the result of applying $f$ to $x$ $k$ times.)

Note that 1990 can be "turned into a square" by adding a digit on its right, and some digits on its left; i.e., $419904 = 648^2$. Prove that 1991 cannot be turned into a square by the same procedure; i.e., there are no digits $d,x,y,..$ such that $...yx1991d$ is a perfect square.
The natural numbers $t{}$ and $q{}$ are given. For an integer $s{}$, we denote by $f(s)$ the number of lattice points lying in the triangle with vertices $(0;-t/q), (0; t/q)$ and $(t; ts/q)$. Suppose that $q{}$ divides $rs-1{}$. Prove that $f(r) = f(s)$.

$p(x,y)$ is a polynomial such that $p(cos t, sin t) = 0$ for all real $t$. Show that there is a polynomial $q(x,y)$ such that $p(x,y) = (x^2 + y^2 - 1) q(x,y)$.
There was a tub on the plane, with its upper base greater that the lower one. The tub was overturned. Prove that the area of its visible shade did decrease. (The tub is a frustum of a right circular cone: its bases are two discs in parallel planes, such that their centers lie on a line perpendicular to these planes. The visible shade is the total shade besides the shade under the tub. Consider the sun rays as parallel.)
